a battery of artillery. The rioters had already forced open the doors when a case-shot gun was fired among them. This single discharge, which knocked down seven or eight men, proved sufficient to put an end to the onset. In the night regular troops and militiamen collected, and occupied in force all the strategical points: the revolt was thus checked before it had time to increase.

In many other places this resistance, without developing into an insurrection, was organized with the connivance of wellnigh the entire population and seriously impeded the operation of law.

It adopted a system of gambling by placing a number of tickets in a hat after the style of drawing a lottery. The lucky number was drawn by Mr. J. Ankemny, of Holmes county, who was thereby entitled to about $250 for his patriotic services. It is said that Judge Bates will call the attention of the Grand Jury to this extraordinary proceeding.
